Snake Oil

Breaking from the routine of owning 4000 pairs of black shoes, I must admit that I was proud of myself the other day when I came across these python beauties from Isabel Marant.  Not really what you’d call a colourful shoe, but with an A+ in the personality stakes all the way, the python ankle

Chloe Girl

This season Chloe is king, I’ve hand selected for you my lovely friends some of our favourite Chloe pieces to partner with some of my favourite current HIGH street selects .. Topshop Premium Boiled Wool Jacket  .  Chloe ‘Elle’ Leather Clutch  .   Chloe Flare Pants  .  Maria Black Gold Nose Ring  .  Topshop’Snake Effect’ Heal

Pyjama Party

Maybe it’s because of the lack of sleep that I’ve been having lately and thought of wearing a slinky silk 2 piece is just too good not to resist.  Or maybe it’s just the fact that only a designer with the sophisticated foresight of Kym Ellery could create a satiny twin set that would have us all

Sunday Sanctuary: Day Dreamer

Although we are nearing the end of the cold season here in the Southern Hemisphere, Winter isn’t going away without giving us a little bit attitude first, and this chilly Sunday has me dreaming of a pyjamas-all-day kind of scenario, the latest Vogue, a hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and that little table in the sun. I’ll also

Holler

By now I’m sure that you recognise this face as the girl scouted by Australia’s very own Christine Centenera,  first face of Alexander Wang’s Fall 2015 RTW New York show and named on Models.com’s coveted most promising new talent list.  Last week I was lucky enough to spend some time with Miss Astrid Holler between rehearsals for the

The Bandana Trend

Maybe it was Axel Rose who originally elevated the humble Bandana to cool factor, but lately we’ve found a whole new appreciation for this ‘type de foulard grunge’.  Take your cue from some of our favourite models and how they’re rocking the Bandana off duty..I”m sure that Axel would be impressed . Harpers Bazaar  .  Free People

Vested Interests

This season I might be all about the flare but I’m here to tell you that there’s another key player on my radar.  Never shying away from boxy silhouettes, the perfect trans-seasonal piece, both functional and yet with a hit of Parisian cool is the oversized vest.  In my recent collaborations with Myer, I’ve had the honour of trawling

Sunday Sanctuary: The Rock Reach House

You know the saying… Location, location, location. While some might think of the ultimate location as a spot in the inner city or perhaps a beach front expanse, this place has me thinking that perhaps it’s time to become a desert dweller. Rock Reach House  .  Pinterest  .  Tumblr

Ralph Lauren ‘Ricky’

It was Mr Ralph Lauren  himself who once said .. “Style is very personal.  It has nothing to do with fashion.  Fashion is over very quickly.  Style is forever”. An iconic statement from such an iconic man with such an understanding of the real meaning as to why, when we walk out the door each

New Romantic

There’s a little romantic in all of us, well that’s why I like to remind my man of anyway.  When I met up with this beautiful lady not that long ago, we had our own chat about romance, boys(we hope you’re reading this), clothes and the obvious fact that she is one of Australia’s most

Sunday Sanctuary: If Walls Could Talk

Here’ a little secret for you, many moons ago if you came to my house you would have found a wall situation filled with Kate Moss photos, torn out magazine editorials, band posters and artworks galore. While these days my walls are more on the minimalist side, my love of busy wall has never quite left and I sometimes

Castaway

When I was 7 my mum crocheted me a set of bikinis, sounds pretty cool right? Mmmm not so much.  The crutch was .. let’s just say ill fitting, the triangles sat 5 centimetres above their appropriate destination and well it all looked ok from a ‘distance’.  It’s needless to say that there is an art
